Chapter 2 Hydrophilicity
Bernardo is the name of the planet beneath Garros's feet.
On this planet, magical culture is highly developed, and all countries are sparing no effort in developing magical technology.
Advanced nations have even built interstellar spaceships using magical engines to explore outer space and other planets, acquiring resources from the universe.
"Dragons are almost the top tier of creatures, but they are not invincible in this world."
Galos blinked as he looked at the false moon in the sky.
The legacy mentions that there was once an ancient blue dragon known as the "Hurricane Wings" who was wanted and hunted by the Nausir Elf Empire for a long time because he destroyed several cities.
Ultimately, using a city as bait, Nausir trapped Hurricane Wings with a magical array.
The false moon unleashed a destructive beam of light, killing Hurricane Wings.
"Moreover, the other creatures on the planet Bernardo have a bad impression of the Five-Colored Dragons and the Atheros, and will immediately prepare to attack them once they discover them."
There are many categories of dragons.
For example, the most common types are the five-colored dragons, metal dragons, gem dragons, and then the iron dragon.
The five-colored dragons are considered evil dragons because of their evil nature and penchant for causing trouble and destruction. The Atheros is even regarded as the 'mad dog' among dragons, frequently killing its own kind, let alone other creatures.
"I am a hybrid of a five-colored dragon and an iron dragon, and a red dragon and an iron dragon. I would probably be considered the worst of the worst dragons, a naturally evil and wicked species of dragon. I am so terrifying that I must not be allowed to live."
He plopped down on the lakeside.
The baby dragon's tail was submerged in the water, swaying back and forth.
Moonlight shone on Galos, and he felt the comfort of his tail bobbing in the water, with small fish occasionally cleaning away the weeds and dust. At the same time, he pondered deeply.
"You should exercise more and strengthen yourself."
"Only when you are strong can you be more confident in the face of potential dangers in the future."
This dragon life has just begun, and Galos hopes to live as long as possible, unlike his previous life, where he encountered great fortune at the tender age of eighteen.
"Let's set a small goal first: to live to be a hundred."
"No, dragons only reach adulthood at a hundred years old. I still hope they can live for a thousand years."
Galos fell backward.
The young dragon's body crashed through the water, splashing countless crystal-clear droplets under the moonlight. He dived to the deepest part of the lake, enduring the immense water pressure, and stopped breathing.
—Dragons can actually breathe underwater.
Galos simply wanted to improve his cardiovascular endurance and his affinity for water.
Thanks to his daily training, his heart and lungs are much stronger than those of ordinary dragons, and the intensity and duration of his dragon breath are greater than those of normal young dragons.
In addition, both the Iron Dragon and the Red Dragon are fire-type dragons and do not actually like water.
The hybrid Garos is also a pure fire-type dragon.
Attacks with water or ice properties will deal double damage to him.
The best way to overcome fear is to face it.
To prevent encountering an attack that counters his elemental properties one day, Garus has been enduring his aversion to water for several years and has started to soak in water from time to time to desensitize and adapt.
By now, his instinctive aversion to water has completely disappeared.
Although he had never actually encountered a water-based attack and couldn't be sure of his water elemental affinity, Garus felt that he would at least not suffer double damage.
Suddenly.
I felt a slight ripple in the water behind me.
A dark figure rapidly approached and launched an attack on Galos.
Galos keenly sensed the change in the water flow and turned around before the attack arrived, raising its dragon claw and slamming it down.
Bang!
The black dragon claws collided with the fiery red dragon claws, creating a ripple in the water.
The fiery red dragon claw gripped Garos's dragon claw tightly, attempting to wrestle with him.
However.
Galos possessed astonishing strength; the powerful muscles beneath its dragon scales bulged and expanded, causing its scales to rise higher. Its claws pressed down inch by inch over the fiery red dragon claws, forcing the dragon to retreat continuously.
They lost the contest.
The owner of the fiery red dragon claw retracted it, stared at Garros with a pair of red dragon eyes, and said in a crisp yet displeased voice, "Garos, you wretched half-blood, I will defeat you sooner or later!"
Samantha, the young dragon, is Garoth's biological sister and a pure-blooded red dragon.
In the dragon race, hybridity is rare because dragon bloodlines are domineering and difficult to integrate with each other.
For example, when a red dragon and an iron dragon conceive, there is a very high probability that a pure-blooded red dragon or a pure-blooded iron dragon will be born. The offspring will inherit the bloodline of one of the parents. Hybrid dragons like Garros, who can fuse with both red and iron blood, are very rare.
Snap!
Garus slapped the red hatchling on the head with his claw.
"When dealing with dragons stronger than you, be mindful of your tone and word choice."
This swipe of the claw sent the red dragon's head lolling to the side, almost knocking the entire dragon off course. The force was considerable.
Dragons, especially evil dragons, often communicate with each other through strength. Only strength can earn the respect of other evil dragons, and Garus was accustomed to this way of communicating among evil dragons.
Red Dragon Girl hatched a year later than Garoth.
At that time, Galus saw that the dragon girl was chubby and round, with a cute and honest appearance that made her lovable, so he tore off a piece of meat from the food he was eating and gave it to her.
result.
However, it thought Garus was weak and took advantage of the situation. Its evil dragon nature came out and it ordered Garus to hand over all its food. Another iron dragon brother, who hatched at the same time, also thought Garus was weak and conspired with the red dragon sister to extort food from Garus.
After being rejected by Garus, the two actually attacked each other, trying to steal all of Garus's food.
Afterwards, Galos pinned them to the ground and beat them severely, knocking out several of their teeth before they finally behaved.
As a hybrid dragon, Garus was naturally stronger than ordinary red or iron dragons, not to mention he was a year older.
at the same time.
The red dragon girl, who had been clawed, bared her teeth and wanted to retaliate, but when she saw the fierce glint in Garus's eyes, she wisely held back.
Red Dragon reveres violence and prefers to solve problems through violence.
However, when their violence is weaker than the other's, they will temporarily endure it, waiting until they surpass the other before retaliating fiercely.
Moreover, it had been beaten up by Garus quite a bit over the years, and knew that this dragon brother would not hold back.
"My beloved brother."
Red Dragon Girl relented and said, "Mother wants you to go to the Dragon's Nest."
After explaining the purpose of its visit to Galos, it muttered under its breath, "You're so strange, always wanting to soak in the water. Now I'm forced to go into the water too."
Red Dragon Girl felt extremely uncomfortable in the water, her dragon face filled with disgust.
It twisted its tail and waist, and quickly floated upwards, leaving the lake water before Galos.
Garus, unhurried, flapped his wings in the water, then broke through the water and soared into the air, overtaking the red dragon girl and flying towards the dragon's nest.
Dragon's Nest – it is located on the cliff face on the east side of the sinkhole.
From the outside, it looks like a simple and rugged cave.
The moonlight couldn't reach inside the dragon's nest, but the stone walls inside were coated with a strange metal, and some parts emitted a bright light, so it wasn't dark.
Galos folded his wings, crossed his limbs, and stepped over the metallic floor, venturing deeper inside.
The deeper you go, the more metal you find all around.
Clusters of metal bloom like flowers on the stone wall, and some angular metal pillars protrude from the ground.
Finally, when Galus reached the deepest part of the cave, his vision suddenly opened up, and he found himself in a huge 'cavity'.
This dragon's nest core is not a rough cave in the traditional sense.
The surrounding ground and stone walls were covered with a layer of soft yet tough metal, similar in texture to mercury, but with rust-colored ripples on the surface.
To the due north stands a 30-meter-high stepped metal platform, topped with the Iron Dragon Girl's exclusive throne.
—It was forged from countless swords and halberds, the weapons of the defeated now solidified into steps, each step inscribed with dragon runes.
Galos looked up.
On the throne was a colossal creature, twenty meters long, whose breath created an airflow like a howling gale—a true dragon.
